At the beginning of any treatment I conduct a thorough diagnostic assessment and evaluation with you and or your child/family.  This assessment is a central part of starting treatment, as it helps us determine a diagnosis and the goals of therapy.  In order to complete the most comprehensive assessment I may have you complete paperwork to gain your assessment of the issues at hand, and if you are interested I am available to conduct in-home or school based observations to provide the fullest picture of the individuals’ challenges.  You will be provided with a written copy of this assessment once it is complete.
